Love. It’ll tear you to pieces. Make a fool out of you. Knock you right off your feet.
With the faithful company from a child, these bears, bunnies, and lovies have the scars to prove it. Mark Nixon is photographing a collection of tattered and worn stuffed animals calling it Much Loved. He showcases them as fine pieces of art, exulting the missing appendages and scuffed fur. It is an endearing series that honors each teddy by telling their story, allowing us to connect with the injuries so appreciating all they gave on the front line of snuggling.

I find a way to fearlessly provoke your senses and take you by the heart to whatever it is I’m writing about. My sweet spot is creative writing, but for the last 20 years I have been providing freelance content for publications on sustainability and green practices, design, architecture, fashion, and non-profit charity. Recently all wrapped up in producing my first book. I have bounced from NYC to Indianapolis, but my true home is a lovely small town in Central Pennsylvania where there’s a legit drive-your-tractor-to-school-day.
